There has been a lot of discussion about the Carrier Dome lately as Syracuse A.D. Daryl Gross, who considers it one of the 'seven wonders of the college athletic world', acknowledged that discussions have taken place at Syracuse University internally about the Dome's future.

Whether you think the Carrier Dome has seen its best days pass or think it should continue to be the home of Syracuse football and basketball well into the future, Syracuse.com users have been actively commenting on the low ranking put out by the magazine.

Here is a sample of what they have been saying:

Cuseloosegoose:"I love it. From a basketball standpoint its one of the top environments in the country. Football purest that say an inside stadium is an abomination should just go find another team. The dome is who we are, I am convinced that it is so unique that it gives a competitive advantage. Over the years, the dome is a great place to upset a ranked team. The heat, noise, quick/hard surface are all things that take a little getting used to. Granted, we could "put some lipstick on this pig" to spruce it up a bit. Why not address making the seating more comfortable and keep going with the annual renovations? If we got a new stadium, we would be like everybody else. Just keep the history and make the one we have nicer."

swfilguy:"More comfortable seating would go a long way to making the Dome a better place. It really is a good place to watch a football game. I still say, adding a noise meter would get the fans into it more. It's a scary place for visiting teams when they are all yelling."

urban planner: "I think Stadium Journey Magazine doesn't know what it is talking about quite frankly. I think the Dome has stood the test of time and feels as new as the day it opened. I would suggest that the metal bleachers be replaced with fold down chairs."

MizzouCuse:"I've been to other college stadiums (ie: I was at the Syracuse @ Missouri game last November and will be in Chicago for the Northwestern game this yr) and they're all pretty much the same. The Carrier Dome is incredibly unique. We'd be crazy to do something different. It makes us instantly recognizable (like Boise's blue turf). Let's keep it and continue to improve on it by doing things like the ribbon lighting and big screens. -- Also us fans can do our part by filling up the seats. Lower than average seat capacity doesn't equate to a bad stadium (think Cameron Indoor @ Duke). But empty seats are a killer."

What could improve the Carrier Dome's overall ranking?

While some improvements have been made recently to the building, (new scoreboards, ribbon lighting) if you could make one improvement at the Carrier Dome, what would it be?
